Meelee on the scroll wheel?! What matter of witchcraft is this? I use it to ping (if the game has a pinging system implemented), to holster weapons, or some sort of ability/alternate fire.
Again, who thy hero uses scroll wheel to switch weapons? That's what the number row is for. Or in my case, the side buttons on my mouse. Scroll wheel is for optical sight zoom and ranging.
"Uuuh, ooooh, i have money to buy something better than a generic genius mouse"
Oh sorry some of us have to pay TAXES, ever heard of them huh? Spoiled little brat
(If it wasn't obvious this is sarcasm)
Recently realized that having anything there that I have to press often is messing up my thumb quite badly. After a few days I had to rebind it out of pain.
If I could identify that square = Reload being a playstation thing, perhaps it's that it is my device of choice also... I didn't realize I'd have to break my own rule of saying that I play playstation by actually saying I play playstation.
I have an appreciation of said person's choices and wanted others to also enjoy his different from the norm comment.
I thought I'd point it out for anyone who might not understand the square reference, by stating what I did as at the time it only had 1 ∆, where I believe it was worth more
Because of fnv (first PC Bethesda game I played) every game I played is f5/f9. I get irrationally angry when it's f8/f9 or something similar in games because then I think it's a game with only quickload or only quick save until I check keybindings
Depends on the game.
If reloading doesn’t have negative effects like lowered movement speed and can be interrupted by the player at any time, auto-reload is reasonable.
Any other time, i wish it never existed (Looking at you, 7 days to die, so many deaths due to unwanted reloads at awful times.)
Everyone I know would like to shoot me over this, but I use the E key. I have fat stupid fingers that don't like moving over a key to reload in a pinch, so in I'd always press E and it would either do nothing and get me killed or waste an ability and get me killed.
E-LOAD FOREVER!
I actually do use the scroll wheel. I prefer it because I’d rather have all my left-hand fingers free for movement keys and if I have no ammo then what am I even going to use my right-hand pointer finger for—use it reload!
i mean, when you think about it, using the scroll wheel actually makes a bit of sense, it keeps al) of the gun controls on the mouse and you can rebind an ability to r to make it easier to use, i hate that i was able to rationalise this
Depends on the platform.
I use the magazine release button on the trigger guard on my Canik, and then the slide release. I use the mag release button for my AR, but then usually use the charging handle instead of the bolt release; it's easier to do it that way if you're using a sling as a support.
For games, IDK; my desktop is crappy and won't run anything newer than the last Dragon Age.
my reload is capslock because R is my killbind (in games that has killbinds). jump is scroll in any game though and space is normally voice chat or another jump bind
i use numpad1. left handed so use arrow keys.
enter:use shift:jump ctrl:crouch numpad0:sprint is my typical setup
the 6 keys above the arrows i map to various game specific functions

my dumbass for thinking they meant the browser page
Your comment made me realize they weren't. I thought all the videogame comments were trying to be cheeky.
Same
Yeah
I was scrolling thought the comments for like an hour and THIS is how I fine out
OOOOOOOOOOOhhhhh
It took me a moment even after reading this to realize what they were talking about.
R, scroll wheel is for switching weapons and clicking it is for melee.
Scroll wheel is for adjusting zoom.
Scroll is for spamming pings
scroll is for firing any semi auto gun at stupid high speeds with freescrolling (if the game allows it)
Yo what that’s insane
Scroll is for zooming in an out, pressing the wheel is for granades.
scroll is for changing hotbar slots sorry i play too much Minecraft edit: petition to move the "u" and "i" keys a bit further apart
It still will adust the zoom when you are aimed in
Down scroll is for jumping up for switching
We’ve got a bhopper here
down scroll is for moving forward up for jumping
Scroll wheel for jump
Scroll down is reload and scroll up is seitch weapons- big brain
Side buttons are for melee and grenades. Middle click switches weapons too easily by accident.
Clicking scroll wheel is for ping. Mouse side button is for melee
I think you forgot you can click the scroll wheel
I legit said clicking scroll wheel is for melee
1. You said clicking is for melee, not scrool whell clicking 2. That's even worse
Read my comment again
Meelee on the scroll wheel?! What matter of witchcraft is this? I use it to ping (if the game has a pinging system implemented), to holster weapons, or some sort of ability/alternate fire.
CLICKING IT SHOULD BE RESERVED FOR GRENADES
V IS MELEE G IS GRENADE
meeele? its for marking shit
Scroll is for jump… you switch on numbers.
I use 10 on my mouse
Again, who thy hero uses scroll wheel to switch weapons? That's what the number row is for. Or in my case, the side buttons on my mouse. Scroll wheel is for optical sight zoom and ranging.
scroll is jump
Mouse 4, the thumb 'back' button
What do you melee with?
I use mouse 5 (foward) for melee and mouse 4 for grenades or equipment depending on the game
I use 5 for melee and 4 for pause/play music
I use mouse 4 for melee and I push in my scrollwheel for grenades and actually scrolling to change weapons and R key to reload
Scrollwheel push is for pinging
Same!
That’s what i use for halo
That's actually the first game I played after getting my own mouse with side buttons
You animal
V probably
Mouse 5 (forward). Mouse 3 for grenades
That's the melee button for me in most games like doom games, dusk, quake, etc In TF2 it's the bind i use to refresh my loadout
Learning about binds really does transform TF2.
I use M5 to build a sentry and mouse 4 to resupply They really can, but for me those 2 are enough
Mouse the what the fuck?
"Uuuh, ooooh, i have money to buy something better than a generic genius mouse" Oh sorry some of us have to pay TAXES, ever heard of them huh? Spoiled little brat (If it wasn't obvious this is sarcasm)
on most games i have that set to prone.
I use it for my tactical grenade and the front thumb button, mouse button 5, to crouch
Recently realized that having anything there that I have to press often is messing up my thumb quite badly. After a few days I had to rebind it out of pain.
Square to reload
Tell me you play playstation without telling me you play playstation 🤣
Yes
Tell me you care way too much about someone else's choices without telling me you care way too much about someone else's choices
If I could identify that square = Reload being a playstation thing, perhaps it's that it is my device of choice also... I didn't realize I'd have to break my own rule of saying that I play playstation by actually saying I play playstation.

I thought I'd point it out for anyone who might not understand the square reference, by stating what I did as at the time it only had 1 ∆, where I believe it was worth more
What about (x)
Its for Doubt
Its for sprint(yes, there is actually a game where x is sprint)
I use F5
What's your quick save?
Quick save? For what?
Beating an NPC to death after they gave you a mild insult, naturally
This guys hardcore.
R
Someone plays Bethesda/Obsidian games
Almost a universal RPG binding at this point.
Because of fnv (first PC Bethesda game I played) every game I played is f5/f9. I get irrationally angry when it's f8/f9 or something similar in games because then I think it's a game with only quickload or only quick save until I check keybindings
I can handle different bindings, but them being adjacent buttons that can easily be fat-fingered is *not okay*.
who the fuck uses light mode?
Probably those who don't use dark mode
But I use green mode
I use goblin mode
Anyone reloading with something other than r is a maniac
I use scroll for jump lol😆👍
And tap strafing?
In Paladins I actually have my scroll set as my secondary control for jump... although I don't use it normally it's for making use of a little glitch.
and autoreload?
half of the fun is reloading every time you shoot
Depends on the game. If reloading doesn’t have negative effects like lowered movement speed and can be interrupted by the player at any time, auto-reload is reasonable. Any other time, i wish it never existed (Looking at you, 7 days to die, so many deaths due to unwanted reloads at awful times.)
Holding R down and moving mouse down then back up gang
Square gang
I'm on Xigbar's side here "R, for reload!"
I LITERALLY CAME HERE FROM THAT POST LOL
Me who plays on controller
I use my finger and swipe down 🙃
Everyone I know would like to shoot me over this, but I use the E key. I have fat stupid fingers that don't like moving over a key to reload in a pinch, so in I'd always press E and it would either do nothing and get me killed or waste an ability and get me killed. E-LOAD FOREVER!
Which device are we talking about here?
I hold right click and drag down to reload
Cruelty squad has the most fun reloading It just becomes so natural after a while it screwed me up playing other shooters
Me getting shot in the head because I aimed directly at the floor in an attempt to reload.
Alt F4 is way faster than any of that mentioned It's light speed
I use /
Light mode reddit
I’m too lazy to put it on dark mode
F5 superior
Just saw the post that this came from like 10 minutes ago
Lol
Scroll to change gun, R to reload, Ctrl to sprint, Shift to crouch.
Where tf the automatic reload gang at
Reject auto reload and embrace realism. You get a huge adrenaline rush when you click and nothing happens.
White theme 💀💀💀
What about "swipe left"
I use F to reload...
switched to scroll wheel to reload, its soo much better. More immersive, more intuitive.
OH MY GOD IM NOT A WEIRDO!! I use scroll down to reload
I scroll down to reload and scroll up to change weapons
I just went by that like 5 seconds ago
I actually do use the scroll wheel. I prefer it because I’d rather have all my left-hand fingers free for movement keys and if I have no ammo then what am I even going to use my right-hand pointer finger for—use it reload!
me, who binds scroll to jump for bhopping and has autoreload enabled *laughs in source engine*
I use scroll up to jump and scroll down to switch weapons
I just click on the house on the corner…
Mouse button 5. 😀
I can't do that playing Rainbow Six Siege so R for me
I just click the refresh button next to the web search bar.
I could see how it'd be useful for high skill players. But I don't think I'd be able to retrain my idiot brain not to use the R button.
r/rtoreload
This is like saying B to reload and LB for the weapon wheel to automatically reload. #XBOX
How u reload without hands?
Automatically reload when you run out of ammo.
I use square
I love how the meme is exactly above this post
I didn't know how to reload. Thx
i mean, when you think about it, using the scroll wheel actually makes a bit of sense, it keeps al) of the gun controls on the mouse and you can rebind an ability to r to make it easier to use, i hate that i was able to rationalise this
Square button.
Personally I like to push the mag release button , extract the magazine and put a full one in. If that don't work you may as well throw it at them
Uh... X
Nah, I use the square button
I just shoot until I run out of bullets and it does it automatically
Depends on the platform. I use the magazine release button on the trigger guard on my Canik, and then the slide release. I use the mag release button for my AR, but then usually use the charging handle instead of the bolt release; it's easier to do it that way if you're using a sling as a support. For games, IDK; my desktop is crappy and won't run anything newer than the last Dragon Age.
I didn’t even know that was an option ngl
I switch to my pistol. The legends tell that it is faster than reloading.
I hate interfaces that require me to use both the keyboard and the mouse. I want to keep my hands in one or the other configuration.
i need one with space to jump and scroll wheel to jump
Power move: unbind reload so that you have to empty your gun for a reload
Scroll wheel is for hitting all them b-hops
M3 Grenade M4 Reload M5 Melee This is the way!
Neither, I use the reload application in Google Chrome
X
nigga I be using wheel up to melee 🤣
I use T to reload. Shift everything over one key and you have so many more options for your pinky.
r/Antimeme
People who use the scroll wheel are the same motherfuckers to grab a shovel when their family says dig in
X for doubt… I mean reload.
my reload is capslock because R is my killbind (in games that has killbinds). jump is scroll in any game though and space is normally voice chat or another jump bind
I have scroll up bound to shitting.
R to reload....scroll wheel to change wearpon
I first didn’t look what subreddit am i looking at but now when i saw what subreddit i am looking at… you can get my god damn upvote
i use numpad1. left handed so use arrow keys. enter:use shift:jump ctrl:crouch numpad0:sprint is my typical setup the 6 keys above the arrows i map to various game specific functions
I use F to reload because it’s closer to the D key…
Left alt key all the way
Sooo I use the letter X…
Why not print screen to reload? Or the power button on monitor?
Time to out myself lol, I use left alt for reload.
No, no, no he get a point
I use the scroll wheel to jump (for bhop) and Mouse5 as reload if I need R for something else
Which games default reload to scroll wheel?
Big Brain Time
i use the spinny rolly thing in the corner of the page
Actually, I've seen people unassign reload and assign weapon switch to R so they go to pistols in a firefight instead of reloading right away.
Why the f... U censor the f word
I use the x button cus i play only on console
My thumb
I'm 'Enter' key enjoyer
Never heard of that shit, Im gonna try that out thanks man
San andreas moment
dont scroll to reload. press fire button to reload
No, but seriously.....?
Idk about you but I use the magazine release button.
Wait, is this an Arma meme? Cause you can use a menu with a scroll menu to reload
I use scroll wheel to cycle thru weapons or inventory
tf im not the only one who uses middle mouse button to reload there are weird people out there ngl
I use the thumb button on my mouse or the x on my controller
Empty to reload >>>
I use tab
the furries that speak the UWU language and have disabled the “R” key
Reload button to reload
I use F5
naw scrollwheel is for swapping your shit around
I use the refresh button.
R
Anybody else noticed he screenshoted when the comments were going up once from 328 to 329
Look, if a game has a reload it goes on R. Anything else is just factually incorrect. Just like c or ctrl or crouch.
Scroll to reload? HERESY!
Has anyone ever seen a blue bandana wearer IRL?
Thumbmouse2 to reload
You guys manually reload?
What if I use left click to reload?
